Hi all!
i'm writing a book, and i was wondering if you could give me some ideas- I posted the prologue.Can you give me some ideas for the title as well?

Prologue
The misty breeze whipped the golden curls in the air, and despite a desperate hand trying in vain to settle the rowdy locks down, they flapped even more wildly. “Mother would skin me if she saw me like this.”
But mother wasn’t there. She was on her own. A stray wisp blew into her face. She stroked it away, tucking it behind her ear. The bow slung over her shoulder, and the arrows in its quiver. She stood there, in the middle of Tortrala’s largest woods- Sysamere. Father used to say she was the spitting image of the Goddess Diana. Her gray eyes flashed at the memory of Father’s proud voice. She clenched her fists. That was before. Her father was different, and she was left to fend on her own. Was she on her own…? And would she be forever?

Editor- On the home page when I clicked on the, "responses to you" button, it didn't show any comments and this came up: user warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'AND status=0 AND timestamp>-16766540576 ORDER BY cid DESC LIMIT 0, 18' at line 1 query: SELECT cid,pid,uid FROM comments WHERE uid= AND status=0 AND timestamp>-16766540576 ORDER BY cid DESC LIMIT 0, 18 in /home/ytimes/webapps/drupal/sites/all/modules/ytimes/ytimes.module on line 4466. Is it just my computer, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Adella

Dear editor: when I clicked the button "responses to you", no comments popped up. Instead, a red box came on the screen that said "user warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'AND status=0 AND timestamp>-16766554545 ORDER BY cid DESC LIMIT 0, 18' at line 1 query: SELECT cid,pid,uid FROM comments WHERE uid= AND status=0 AND timestamp>-16766554545 ORDER BY cid DESC LIMIT 0, 18 in /home/ytimes/webapps/drupal/sites/all/modules/ytimes/ytimes.module on line 4466" Do you what this means?

Sounds kinda cool! I think whether or not theres comments would be nice. It would be kind of cool, to here what people think about that, and maybe to see what they did in some situations.
adella's picture
adella August 22, 2013 - 1:14pm
I think I would like to pick whether there could be comments or not, but if that wasn't possible, than I would want comments. Are you thinking like a message board type thing?
Tryn28's picture
Tryn28 August 22, 2013 - 11:17am
the thing is what if some of those comments are completely inappropiate or something?

Hey FuzzUzzle! That would be AWESOME!!! I would LOVE that!!! It would be AWESOME if there could be comments, there are some things I would love to talk to other kids about!!! Let me know if and when you make this website!!! :) P.S. I love reading your posts/comments! :)

dear editor! hey its kumi! i was wandering if you could make some sort of thing that you could send a comment to just one person, like a personal 'only go to one person' type of comment where no one but the person you send it to and you could read it, because what if you were having a conversation and dont want someone else knowing about it? like the peaople who are helping eachother on books and stuff? just a suggestion but it sounds like a good idea and would help a lot! ~kumi!

Anyone a homeschool writer????? The books I am writing are... Dwellers of the forest (I will post Chapter 1 as a teaser) Chapter 1 Feathersky I flew silently though the forest and soon came to a clearing with a giant oak tree in the center. The grass was green and already tall. It was only half moon after cold-ground, but the trees and other plants already were fully grown. Flowers covered the field. The green grass was taller then a Great Gray Owl. I glided low enough to stroke the grass with the tips of my wings and my stomach. I pulled a flower and landed. I looked at my flower. It was purple with yellow and blue speckles. I looked closer and was amazed to see that the speckles were moving in a circle pattern. I dove to the ground and landed below the oak tree. I circled it until I found what I was looking for: a Barn Owl sized hollow in the tree roots. I crept in and look around. It was all the same. The walls were a dusty brown. I had a mouse and a vole laying in a puddle of water. Dried berries were gathered inside a hollowed out hole in the wall. A small fire burned quietly in the center of the room. The floor was dirt until I found it. Now it is made of smooth wood taken from fallen trees. The fire place was made of large stones and clay. It was only a small oval. I went outside and grabbed some sticks then went back in. I through the sticks in the fireplace and put a metal net over it. I looked at the mouse and vole trying to decide witch to eat. I grabbed the vole and set it on the net. I got a wooden plate and waited till the vole was cooked and set it on the plate. I found some juicy berries and squeezed them over the vole then seasoned it with a little salt. I set down the plate and got a talon full of dried berries and set them near the vole. After I ate I grabbed paper and a talon full of grass and mashed it into a green goop. I found a small stick and dipped it in. I wrote:The Ice Lands by: Feathersky leader of the Owl-Dwelling Icy waters hold many animals unknown to us. Some are too horrifying to tell, but not the star fish. They are all very different from us. They walk slowly on the sea floor with millions of legs. I began. I tried to write more, but something drew me outside. When I came out it was already night time. I flew out of the hollow then remembered the strange flower. I went back and grabbed it in my talons. I then soared out of the clearing.When I got to the great tree my best friend Darktalon the Horned Owl was waiting for me on a branch. I landed next to him. We talked till day then wished each other good dreams and flew to our sleeping quarter. My other friends were waiting for me inside when we came in. Rose the Great Gray was not finished with training yet but had a strong heart. I being the leader of Owl-Dwelling will chose what her job will be when her training is done. She was very adventures and would train as hard as possible. Rainclaw was a fighter like Darktalon. She was the bravest Snowy owl in the tree. She love to mess with hot coals and fire. Her plumage was not just a white and gray like most of her kind, but also had brown and orange in it. She was training an Elf owl to be a fighter. Ash was a small Northern Screech owl with a big heart. He was the last owlet to begin training. He wanted to be a Carer because he loved to help others. We talked for a while then everyone went to sleep… everyone, but me. I decided to fly for a while. I stepped to the edge of the hollow and got ready to take off then flew. I flew slowly at first then faster as I got used to the light of day. I flew as fast as I could above the trees and - “Wait for me I’m coming too!” It was the small voice of the little Saw Whet, River who was still learning how to fly. I whipped around and grabbed the surprised owl in my talons and put him in a nearby hollow. I told him, “Stay here till I get you”, but he was frozen with fear. I continued my flight in peace, but then I smelled the same thing I smelled after a battle, blood , I heard and owlet crying “Help help he-” The last “help” was cut off. I looked around and saw a limp Saw Whet owlet. Snowsky the Cat-Dwelling leader walk away with blood covering his front paws as I gasped in horror. SparkleI watched as Snowsky slathered the owlet. I wished there was some way I could stop him. He padded to me smiling. I looked up and saw a Barn Owl flying away.”Good someone saw him” I thought. “That is how you kill an owl” he said. “What?” I replied pretending not to hear him he took a deep breath. “Were you even listening?” I looked at him “Listening to what?” I was crouching in a bush watching him claw the grass in anger.”Um… are you okay?” He glared at me and I stared at his furious amber eyes. He had a scar scraping along his eye witch glowed an eerie red. He sighed “Yes, I’m fine.” I wondered if what he said was true. We walked together to our home, the Cat-Dwelling camp. As we walked in two dog guards nodded at us. I looked around and all was well. The sound of kits came from a small bush. I looked over to it and I saw a small white fur ball rolled out. I smiled as Tree, Snowsky’s kit looked up at me with icy blue eyes.”Hello Sparkle, follow me. I want to show you something.” I followed Tree around the camp.”First I think you might like this. I put new moss and water in the learners den.” I peered into the bush and looked around. The moss was fresh and new. Instead of a moss bed a branch lay where I slept. I nodded to it and he ran over and lifted it up with much difficulty. I padded to help, but he was already weaving it into the wall. We wove it until it was sturdy. I looked at my bed. The moss was the brightest of them all. I felt it with my paw. It was the softest moss I ever felt. “Thanks a bunch, Tree.” I said as I looked at a hole dug out of the ground with a large leaf filled with water in it. He looked at me happily. “You’re not evil are you? I’m not.” “Nether am I.” I said quietly. “But, Dad will-” “I don’t care what Dad would say, little brother” I looked at him our blue eyes meeting. “I love you, sis” “I love you to” We snuggled up together and slept. We snuggled up together and slept. The green grass blew softly in the wind. I looked around and saw that I was nowhere near home. Golden bars where in the ground. Two long ones attached them. I stared it awe as the… Oh what do the owls call it… gate opened. I saw a tall figure step forward. I don’t know how to describe him. He was a creature I never seen before. He said in my mind “Out of the shadows three will rise, a warrior, a saver, and The One… Dawningtail I sat patiently as Cloud padded toward me happily. “So when are we going?” he barked questioningly. The sun was at it’s highest. My rusty brown coat blended into the bolder I was sitting by. The mountains were high above the clouds. I looked down the plain and saw a large hawk circling a small patch of trees.”Look Cloud, a hawk. Can you tell me why that hawk is flying like that?” Cloud looked at it and tilted his head.”Um… is it because it has a nest and a mate in the trees she said. ”Perfect let’s go. You get the chicks I distract the parents. If they’re still eggs take them more carefully. Are you ready.” I barked to him. “Yes, Sir.” she said. We crept slowly to the nesting tree. Cloud hid in a bush while I tried to get their attention by clawing the tree and barking at the nest. The mother spotted me and yelled for the father. “Treeeeeck treeeeck” he screamed at me and dove. Before he hit me I jumped up and clawed his eyes. He collapsed onto the ground as his mate cried in agony. She dove and raked her claws along my back. I jumped and grabbed her neck in my mouth as she yelled, “Dirty dirty dog, you smell worse then a… er fr-”! I bit harder and heard a loud crunch of bones. I let go of the limp bird and looked at her mate who was trying to speak.”P…please don’t hurt m… m… me.” he pleaded. His eyes had stopped bleeding and were now wide with fright. “Haven’t I already?” I replied. He nodded, “Y…your r…right kill me n…now.” He sighed the lifted his head perfect to easily kill. I leaped over him and grabbed his tail feathers. Cloud came over with a nest in his mouth. Three snow white eggs sat inside. The hawk lifted up his head and tucked in his legs as I carried him up the mountain. He gave me a look that said, “What are you doing” “Saving your life.” I whispered back. We got up the mountain halfway then stopped. A small path stretched across the mountain as we walked to it. I walked onto it and began to search the wall by it until I found what I was looking for. A ruby paw print glowed in the sunset. I lifted my paw and pushed it. The wall next to it faded slowly then was gone. We stepped in and looked around. The sun shone brightly as the wind blew gently. A clearing covered with different flowers stretched ahead of me. Four wolfs looked at me and began shouting happily, “They’re back, they’re back!” Many wolfs looked up from the tall grass. A large gray wolf padded to me and began speaking to me, “Welcome home. I see that you have been successful in your mission.” I bowed my head, letting go of the hawk. He fluttered his wings and landed on a nearby branch.”Yes, Sharpsky, I have brought you a hawk and three eggs. I hope you are proud. Cloud did great. I think it is time to end his training.” I replied. He nodded and said,” Yes your right Cloud will have his ceremony of good work when the sun is at it’s highest.” “Thank you, Great wolf.” Cloud bowed his head. When the time came for Cloud to end training with a ceremony I padded to the ceremony rock that sat in the middle of the clearing. Cloud was already there when I got to the rock. The same four wolfs that first spotted us when we returned sat around him.”Cloud was it easy to steal the eggs?” asked Rock, a white she-wolf with gray speckles who was still a learner. “Not really.” He replied. The wolfs began pouring out questions to Cloud until a howl sounded from the rock. “Cloud, come.” said Sharpsky as many other wolfs padded out. My vision blurred and went black as I collapsed to the ground. So??? What do you guys think??? Next book Journey #1 The Power (prologue only sorry) Prologue Lily was dreaming about her parents. She was awakened by a loud bang. She grabbed her candle, lit it, and grabbed her knife of her nightstand. She walked slowly down the stairs. Once she was in her living room she saw a faint light coming from the kitchen. She walked toward the kitchen. She saw what the light was coming from. It was her parents’ ghosts! Lily screamed and her mother shushed her. Lily’s father said,” Hush, my little one. We have come to warn you.” “About what?”, Lily replied. Her mother said,” About your future if you don’t do something. Jonaya said to tell you ‘A betrayer is in your path’.”
